%C See A189733.

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_05">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (1,-1,1,-1,1).

%F G.f.: x*(1+x^2-x^3)/((1-x)*(1-x+x^2)*(1+x+x^2)).

%F From _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Oct 03 2017: (Start)

%F a(n) = a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3) - a(n-4) + a(n-5) for n > 4.

%F a(n) = (1+(-1)^floor((n-1)/3))/2-floor((n+1)/6)+floor(n/6). (End)

%t b[m_, n_] := b[m, n] = Which[m == n, 0, n == m + 1, (-1)^(n + 1)/n, n > m, b[m, n - 1] + b[m + 1, n - 1], n < m, b[m - 1, n + 1] - b[m - 1, n]]; a[n_] := b[0, n] // Numerator; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 100}]

%t (* or, simply: *)

%t a[n_] := {0, 1, 1, 1, 0, -1}[[Mod[n, 6]+1]]; Table[a[n], {n, 0, 100}]
